Hi,

I cant install Ubuntu. After following all the steps here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI I still cant install Ubuntu properly.

I have done the step 5: "If the PC does not load Ubuntu (but instead loads Windows, for example, as in Bug #1050940 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1050940)), or if the Windows entry in the GRUB 2 (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2) menu does not boot Windows (see Bug #1024383 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1024383)), boot your PC using the Live CD/DVD or Live USB and choose "Try Ubuntu" once again. When the live session has loaded, run Boot-Repair (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair) (see link for details). When Boot-Repair loads, click on the "Recommended repair" button, and write on a paper the URL (paste.ubuntu.com/XXXXXX/) that will appear. Then reboot the pc."

I still cant load Ubuntu.

I got this url: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6136506/


Thank you for your help

It looks like you've been trying to do a Wubi install, which is known to not work well with Windows 8 and UEFI.

I'd suggest you try a supported installation mode, for example in a VM, or get another HDD and install to that.
